Set up the accountability check to compare to intermediate data captures

You can create an intermediate data capture (IDC) of a structure that captures the current state of a configured structure in a PLM XML file. If you then continue to work on the structure, you may want to compare it at a later point to the IDC to see what changes have taken place. To do this, the original structure must contain in-context IDs before you create the IDC.

• If you want to compare the entire structure, create the in-context IDs using the bom_expand utility.

• If you want to compare only partial structures, when writing the PLM XML transfer mode for IDC creation, include a line in the transfer mode that creates in-context IDs on the desired lines in the structure. For example: Copy"CLASS.BOMLine : CLASS.AbsOccGenerator : PROPERTY.bl_absocc_generator: PROCESS:
